By periodically accompanying your reps in the field, you can build relationships with the people you count on to close sales.
Cost Analysis of Your Selling Tactics

For example, even though it might seem logical to increase the size of your sales force to expand your base of pet breeders business customers, the additional labor overhead may be an inefficient decision from a cost analysis perspective.
Market Aggressively
Marketing -- or more specifically aggressive marketing -- directly impacts pet breeders business sales success. A combination of tight competition, multichannel approaches and emerging marketing technologies mean that you'll need to flawlessly execute your strategy to capture the attention of decision makers.
A large portion of your marketing efforts should focus on maximizing the number of leads that are funneled to your sales force. Lead lists are a genuinely powerful resource in lead generation and can be purchased cost-effectively from Experian and other reliable third-party providers.
